Stuck in Negative Thoughts? Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) Can Break the Cycle
Are you tired of feeling trapped in a cycle of negative thoughts? Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers a practical approach to help you manage overwhelming feelings and regain control over your mind.
CBT with a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist Who Gets It
I understand the struggle of anxious, looping thoughts. I have sat with the same racing feelings and felt the weight of overthinking and the pressure to keep it all together. I know how hard it is to believe things can feel different. As a cognitive behavioral therapist,
I offer CBT that meets you where you are. You don’t need to figure this out by yourself.
Do These Cognitive Behavioral Thought Patterns Sound Familiar?
You can’t stop overthinking, no matter how hard you try
You expect the worst in every situation
You feel stuck in fear and self-doubt
You believe you’re not good enough
You carry constant guilt for things you can’t control
You overanalyze every interaction
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Helps You Notice and Shift Thought Patterns
You don’t have to believe every thought that shows up. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps you notice patterns that feel automatic and shows you how to question them. You can take the lead in your process. You can build a better way to manage your thoughts with support.
